Hello, I haven't posted much on this website, but have found it very helpful during the long process for my fiance's K1 visa. I'm currently in Thailand with my fiance, and we just received her passport today with the sealed packet. Upon opening her passport she discovered that her date of birth is wrong on the visa page. It is off by one day, her date of birth is 03/24/1991, they put 03/25/1991. Of course this all comes from my original mistake on her form I-130 last year when I mistyped her date of birth. Every other document we had submitted had her correct date of birth on it. Of course it is after hours now and the US embassy Bangkok is now closed until Monday. Has anyone here had a similar issue in the past? How long is it going to take for this to be fixed by the embassy? We were planning to leave next Thursday August 12th, but now I feel that this is no longer possible. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I'm so angry with myself for the original mistake, and greatly annoyed that the embassy didn't double check their information before printing her visa. But if I hadn't made the original mistake, I doubt this would have happened. Thank you everyone.

That is absolutely my plan. I was just curious if anyone knew what the embassies procedure for this is. Will it take days, or a quick fix by going to the embassy, them printing a corrected one, and us leaving with it the same day. And of course with covid-19, procedure may very well be altered.

Normal procedure would be to mail in the passport after notifying the embassy and wait for it to be mailed back with the corrected visa.  US embassies/consulates also normally do not allow entry of non-USCs without an appointment for that date.  It is highly unlikely that the correction and delivery of the visa can be completed in a day.
